Food Recipe for the Soul

"Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink.... Is not life more than food...? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?" (Matthew 6:25-26)

You have given me so much, Lord! I celebrate Your goodness and provision in my life! Amen.
